White Paper | 2024 | Q4

At Caliber, our purpose is Restoring the Rhythm of Your Life©.  To fulfill our purpose, we are committed to restoring vehicles to pre-accident condition.

In recent years, Caliber and our partner, Protech Automotive Solutions, have observed a disturbing trend: The industry is falling behind on performing necessary post-repair ADAS safety calibrations.

  • The current need for ADAS calibration in collision repair

  • Projected calibration demand by repair year from 2024 - 2031

  • How repair mix by make will create variations at the shop level

  • Industry calibration performance to demand, current and trending

  • Methodology behind projections and validation process

  • Industry-wide call to action
